Agreed on changing the message texts to match, but I wonder whether
we ought not switch all those SQLSTATEs to something different.  Per my
comment to Kevin, I think the whole 08 class is meant to be issued on
the client side.  Maybe it's okay to conflate a server-detected
connection loss with client-detected loss, but I'm not convinced.
